Course Title:
History of Modern Britain
Course Number:
HIST 3331
Course Description:
This course examines British history from Victorian period to the twentieth century. It will detail the major political, economic, philosophical, artistic, scientific, and social events of this period and will examine them as a series of interwoven threads rather than as separate events. Consider that during the span of our investigation this small island state and its collection of nationalities came to exert control and influence over a quarter of the world's land mass and for much of the time operated as unchallenged mistress of the seas. The course proceeds as an empirical examination of the progress of multiple facets of British history, but all along our inspection we will confront the question as to what it meant (means) to be British.
